Mar 14 Jean Giraud [Moebius] RIP - French Artist

Acclaimed French comic book artist Jean Giraud, who also went under the alias of Moebius, has passed away at the age of 73. During his career Giraud created concept work for films like The Fifth Element, Alien and Tron. He also won an Eisner Award for his work on the Marvel comic "Silver Surfer: Parable", that was written by Stan Lee.

Having already lost the visionary artist Ralph McQuarrie last week, we lose another great artist in the form of Moebius, whose breathtakingly surreal drawings are a sight to behold.
